Spanish Education

Our only foreign language option at South Seneca Middle School is Spanish, offered in grades 7 (Spanish 1A) and 8 (Spanish 1B). By passing both the course and the 8th grade assessment (no longer a NYS exam), students earn a high school credit.

The course is governed by NYS standards for world languages called “Checkpoint A.” Objectives include learning to read, write, listen, and speak in the language, as well as some fundamental knowledge about the culture of Spanish-speaking countries.http://www.p12.nysed.gov/ciai/lote/pub/loteresa1.pdf
